Isn't this supposed to be a free speech forum?

To be frank I find that RT news although have some connotation behind them, a lot of times carry more information than what you are feeded by the establishment through BBC.
Aren't we supposed to understand other mentalities and cultures or it is part of the same rhetoric that everything different than what we currently have, is communism, and must dye?
BBC is just "news" for the happy go lucky housewives, hair dressers that need something on the tv. News for the masses.

RT few times reported stories that other outlets wouldn't dare to report.

The situation is not binary. If showing particular story benefits the Russian state then the more truth they can show the better for them. If the story could hurt Russia then they are going to muddy the waters.
If you take into account this bias, to some degree their reporting is (was) much better than BBC.
